Intellectual Property & IT

Although usually not reflected in your accounts, intangibles such as trade names, domain names, trademarks, logos, payoffs and other properties tend to be important business assets. Are you sure those assets are properly protected? And what will you do if an associate attempts to piggyback on your success? Van Iersel Luchtman Advocaten advises you on how to appropriately protect your intellectual property rights and will assist you if you find that others are infringing on those rights. If exploiting intellectual property rights is, in fact, your core business, we will help you draft or assess licensing, franchise and non-disclosure agreements.

When it comes to information technology (IT), we are your law firm. We can draft the appropriate contracts for the development, maintenance and administration of software, middleware and hardware. We are aware of the complexities involved in creating online stores and conducting e-commerce, including privacy issues and database protection.
